Template:Infobox weblog The Jawa Report is a blog and forum for civilians concerned about terrorism by Islamists.[1] The Boston Globe describes it as a "popular" website "that monitors terrorism investigations".[2] It was begun in 1994, following the killing of journalist Nick Berg, by a blogger who goes by the name of Dr. Rusty Shackleford.[3] Shackleford was an untenured professor when he began the blog.[3]

Contractor Roy Hallums, who was kidnapped in Iraq on November 1, 2004, held for 311 days, and freed on September 7, 2005, recounts that the Jawa Report was the first media entity to publicly release his name.[3]

In 2006, it discovered and revealed a doctored photo taken by a Reuters freelance photographer, Adnan Hajj during fighting between Israel and forces in Lebanaon.[4] Its caption falsely said: "An Israeli F-16 warplane fires missiles during an air strike on Nabatiyeh in southern Lebanon."[4][5] The truth was that the F-16 was dropping defensive flares, and the photo had been doctored to increase the number of flares falling from the F-16 from one to three.[4] Reuters deleted all of the photographer's photos from its database.[4] Its global pictures editor said: "Manipulating photographs in this way is entirely unacceptable and contrary to all the principles consistently held by Reuters throughout its long and distinguished history."[4]

In the Colleen LaRose (JihadJane) plot, Jawa Report members who had been tracking her comments and movements, including her raising funds for Pakistani militants through Twitter, alerted U.S. authorities in July 2009.[1][6]

It has been quoted and/or its findings reported in Fox, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The Boston Globe, The Sunday Times, The Guardian, Salon, The Weekly Standard, The New York Sun, The Free Lance–Star, the Lodi News-Sentinel, the Columbia Journalism Review, and by ABC, and CBS.[7][2][8][4][9][10][11][12][5][13][14][15][16][1]
